I am staying at my Uncle's secluded farmhouse approx 3/4 mile from Henham, i am doing some work in an upstairs study opposite my bedroom, all of a sudden, a light shines through the window and lights up the whole bedroom, i go to the window and see a bright white circular object hovering approx 10-20 ft from the ground, around the middle are red lights, then what looks like a green laser starts scanning around the field and trees, the beam then points straight at me and then the object just zooms away across the field and disappears in less than a second, i then went and got my mum and grandad, when we went back to look from the window, the object had returned, i went to find my dad and left my mum and grandad watching the object, when i returned with him, my mum told me that the object had moved down the fieldand then all of a sudden sped off the opposite direction without turning around, she said it had travelled faster than anything she had ever seen, it ! had flown in the direction of Stansted Airport. my dad and i went outdoors and stood in the farmers field next to the house to see if we could see anything, after a couple of minutes we could see what looked like green laser beams scanning around some trees in the distance (when we checked on a map the next day the trees were about 2 miles away), the green beams scanned the trees for approx 5 minutes when they changed direction 180 degrees and pointed straight at us, the beam was so bright that we had to turn away, when we looked again the beam had disappeared and we didn't see it again, we went indoors and my grandad said that in his 78 years, he had never seen anything like what he had saw tonight
